The original question is "What is the chance of the coin on the other side being gold?"
Meaning it makes it easier to eliminate possibilties.
G|G G|S S|S
If we obtained a gold BALL, then we can't have been in box S|S
G|G G|S
X|G G|S -> Possible
G|X G|S -> Possible
GG X|S -> Not Possible
2 out of 3 chances for us to have the X be next to another gold ball.
Thare are only two permutations where we could realistically get another gold ball from the "other side" of the same box.
